“It is always a delight to have Megan play within our special worship services. She is a skilled harpist whose artistic heart comes through in her performance. Over the years she has added a special touch to some of our most celebrated services. We look forward to her participating with us again!”
- Eric Dalrymple, Worship Pastor, Shiloh Community Church, Phoenix, Arizona, 2 December, 2007
Megan Metheney is a world class harpist from Arizona, USA. Coming from a classical training but always tending to push the envelope, she has taken the instrument of the harp and truly created a sound and style of her own, making her music authentic and meaningful. Having traveled to perform in over 10 countries, Megan continues to mold an inspiring career for herself in playing, teaching, arranging, and writing about the harp.
She holds a Bachelor of Music from the University of Arizona where she studied harp with the renowned Carrol McLaughlin. She also holds a Master of Music degree from the University of Texas at Austin where she studied with Delaine Fedson. As part of a long time dream to study with French harp virtuoso Elizabeth Fontan Binoche, Megan spent two years studying with her in Nice, France. At the same time, she worked alongside with harpist Alessandra Magrini, gaining a Premiere Prix in harp from the music conservatory in Grasse, France in 2006.
Her debut album, Notes on the Moon, was released in 2007, quickly gaining popularity around the globe. Megan is currently living between France and Phoenix, Arizona. |
